    Still get giddy unboxing new toys. The MAC decided it was done after 15 years. Screenshot_20260116-171324~2.png

    Apparently it hits almost as strong as the Snap On but at nearly a third of the price. Guess we'll see how well it sets the solid rivets on a KW cab.

    There was a guy at the last vintage bike swap meet doing demonstrations with it. Works pretty good.

    I am surely the last person that should give advice, and I'm not trying to, but I need to say this:
    Before you all take a step that you can't back out of, try to remember some of the good things. The Jeep trip you guys took seemed like a good time that you both enjoyed, and you have mentioned numerous other things over the years about your girls that showed how you care for them. What happens may have to happen, but if you can look at it without rage in your eyes there's less chance of regret in the future.

    You don't need ######## on a stupid forum giving you advice, but I felt the need to say it because you have been a good friend.

    No, you’re right…. And that’s what the walk about has been about. Lot of anger and I just need some time to clear my head. I don’t know what the future holds. And it’s not all one sided either.

    Lol that was my first thoughts too. But no the heat is pretty intense. It'll burn or stain aluminum.It's a pretty powerful machine, just stroking past the steel will smoke the concrete.

    Sometimes a man gets to a certain age and he looks around and he’s gave everything to everyone. And he feels like he’s sorta lost who he was in the process. He feels like he’s fighting the world and having to drag everyone along. They all just sit around and let him do it. It gets old! It gets old when you feel like you’re in the fight alone. And I’m not just talking about the wife here, I’m talking about all of them. At some point you just feel like saying F it. If they don’t care why do I?
